which bedliner is it?

Not the duplicolor, but some other brand from Wal Mart...they don't have the duplicolor one for some reason. It looks a lot better now that it has dried.

From my experiences, it usually doesn't work out too well to have short ports. Longer (while keeping the tuning high) usually equals louder. Curious to see what this thing does though.

That's awesome! I would love to know how that sounds! Get some videos soon!

I thought about that too, but since the box is being tuned so high, I already had to make the ports very large. In order to have them, say, 15 inches long...they'd be nearly 6" wider and as a result take up a lot more space as well. I was just wanting to work with a 49" wide design(since 4x8 sheets of MDF are 49" wide) in order to make the build easier.

Well I'm still waiting for my truck to get out of the shop...I have no idea when it will be ready.

especially when I'm so anxious to see if this works properly. It's not like this is a normal box that I know is going to work great...

well, I got my truck back today and got it all installed...

What a freaking disappointment...I've never been more frustrated in my life. It's probably doing a 145 around the 47-48hz area. I'm thinking my rear chamber is tuned too low, and is amking it pretty loud over a fair amount of frequencies(doesn't drop off sharp like it should). What could I do to raise the tuning of that rear chamber? Shave the port down? Add some 2x4's to the inside?

you mean raise the tuning... and id try to cut the port down before i tried adding volume to the box

P.S. bandpasses are a bish to design //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

Yeah, I meant raise...edited it.

I'll probably try cutting the port down first, but I'm having a hard time thinking of an easy way to do it....anyone have suggestions?
